Open registration is now available for the international conference on ecological responses to arctic climate change, "After the Melt," to be held 5-7 May 2008, at the University of Aarhus, Denmark. The conference will focus specifically on the rapid and dramatic ecological consequences of climate change in the Arctic. The conference is organized by the National Environmental Research Institute at University of Aarhus, Denmark, in collaboration with the Danish Polar Center.
The International Polar Year 2007-2008 commemorates and highlights research and exploration in the Arctic. The aim of this conference is to give an unparalleled opportunity to advance public awareness of and appreciation for arctic ecology and its inherent vulnerability to climatic changes. The combined list of invited speakers embraces the arctic biome, from single species responses over inter-trophic relations and complex system changes to the processes of carbon cycling and feedback dynamics to the atmosphere.
